Chapter 87: Invincible Lu Xun, You Wouldn't Play If You Couldn't Afford to Lose, Right?

"Hmph!"

"Immediately, Jia Yumei gave a light hum."

"Lu Xun initially didn't know what was good for him, repeatedly rejecting her, and now he's coming again to provoke trouble."

"Who's afraid of whom?"

"No matter how monstrous, he's merely a freshman; at the enormous Beidou University, there are plenty of students who can teach Lu Xun a lesson."

"Their Jia Clan can summon far too many geniuses."

"Miss, don't worry, Yu Lei will surely finish him in this round."

"Supervisor Li is full of confidence."

"Junior, losing focus in battle isn't good; are you ready? I'm about to attack."

"On the fighting platform, Yu Lei's voice rang out."

"He is a proud fourth-year senior, possessing a third-realm sixth-layer cultivation, yet he intends to strike first."

"Come on!"

"Lu Xun stood with his hands behind his back."

"Heh."

"Amid his faint laugh, Yu Lei's figure vanished from the spot."

"Boom—boom—boom~"

"Several bolts of lightning appeared, striking toward Lu Xun."

"At the same time, several Yu Lei apparitions suddenly appeared on the platform."

"Lu Xun's figure also vanished at the same time."

"Boom—boom—boom~"

"In the blink of an eye, the two had already engaged in fierce combat; the surrounding students saw only afterimages of Lu Xun and Yu Lei filling the platform."

"These afterimages constantly shattered and reappeared, making it impossible to tell where the two actually were."

"Thousand Illusion Thunder Method! Yu Lei's movement art is getting stronger and stronger."

"On a distant building, many people were watching the battle."

"These are all senior geniuses from Beidou University."

"\"What do you think, how great are Lu Xun's chances of victory? \""

"Someone asked."

"\"Hard to say; weapons aren't allowed on the platform, Lu Xun's flying sword is useless, he seems not to have cultivated any spellcraft, his immortal Dao cultivation is of no use, whereas Yu Lei... \""

"\"Besides, from past battles, Lu Xun excels in swordsmanship, but there's no sword on the platform... \""

"The two began analyzing in turn."

"The others nodded slightly."

"Their views were roughly the same."

"Among all Heaven Earth Meridians, those affiliated with fire or lightning have combat power that is comparatively over the top."

"Yu Lei's Nine Heavens Thunder Meridian grants him astonishing combat power even without weapons."

"On the contrary, Lu Xun, lacking weapons and techniques, has immortal Dao combat power that is barely better than nothing."

"He couldn't possibly blast people with spiritual power, could he?"

"This leaves Lu Xun only able to fight Yu Lei using martial means."

"What's worse, Lu Xun knows swordsmanship, but without a sword, he's effectively half-disabled."

"Previously, Lu Xun defeated Luo Yu; to everyone, it seemed due solely to his exquisite movement technique."

"This advantage isn't significant against Yu Lei."

"Because Yu Lei's Thousand Illusion Thunder Method is extremely powerful, combined with the Martial Divine Ability after opening the foot apertures, his movement is not much inferior to Lu Xun's."

"No matter how strong Lu Xun is, he's ultimately just a freshman, while Yu Lei is a senior, having started three years later."

"Boom—boom—boom~"

"Amid everyone's gaze, the battle continued."

"\"Later I'll have Chu Youqing learn some spells, and Murong Wan learn some fist techniques and the like. \""

"Lu Xun calculated while fighting."

"Those few senior geniuses' analysis was correct."

"In this battle, Lu Xun is indeed somewhat passive."

"The main reason is that he lacks effective means of attack."

"Flying swords can't be used, long swords can't be used; the only martial skill he can currently employ is Divine Trace Steps."

"Fortunately, Divine Trace Steps has reached its second stage, making it more exquisite than Yu Lei's Thousand Illusion Thunder Method."

"No matter how superb the movement technique, when attacking one can only rely on fists."

"Lu Xun has tempered his body over twenty layers, his physique is terrifying; coupled with his extremely pure and vigorous true qi, even without martial techniques, his punches hurt badly."

"If he lands a hit, Yu Lei can't withstand it."

"The only problem is that the Thousand Illusion Thunder Method possesses an illusory nature; Lu Xun hasn't opened his eye apertures, making it hard in the short term to tell real from fake."

"These third-realm geniuses are indeed far stronger than ordinary third-realm cultivators outside."

"Of course, the main issue is that Lu Xun's means are restricted; otherwise, even if Yu Lei were a peerless genius, Lu Xun could quickly defeat him."

"\"How can his illusions be so numerous? \""

"Across from him, Yu Lei also had a headache."

"He had opened his eye apertures, but Lu Xun's Divine Trace Steps were weirdly fast; he likewise couldn't catch Lu Xun."

Two figures crossed and chased on the arena, the fist wind tearing only phantoms.

"It's time to end it!"

Yu Lei suddenly bellowed, raising both palms to the heavens.

"Look!"

"It's over, Lu Xun is over!"

The students exclaimed in shock.

Because, above the arena, thick thunderclouds had somehow gathered.

Yu Lei was about to launch an indiscriminate attack.

The arena is too small; this move of Yu Lei could completely cover it, leaving Lu Xun nowhere to dodge.

"It really has to end!"

Lu Xun's eyes flashed with sharp light, chaotic divine power surging.

His speed suddenly increased.

In an instant, the arena was filled with Lu Xun's afterimages.

"Boom boom boom!"

Amid the successive explosive sonic booms, Yu Lei's thousand phantom thunder shadows shattered one after another.

"How could it be so fast!"

Yu Lei's eyes narrowed; Lu Xun's true form had already broken through the air and arrived!

"Heavenly Thunder Palm!"

He showed no fear; in a fierce shout, thunderous energy burst from his whole body, divine lightning blazing blindingly from his palm.

"Boom——"

Blinding lightning engulfed the entire arena.

Immediately after,

A figure flew backward from that lightning, crashing into the protective formation around the arena, then sliding heavily to the ground!

"It's Yu Lei!"

"He actually lost!"

"Hiss!"

"This strength... is terrifying!"

"Invincible, Brother Xun!"

When people saw clearly who had fallen, they all gasped in shock.

Yu Lei, defeated!

"How could this happen!"

Behind the arena, Jia Yuyi suddenly rose from her seat, her pretty face full of surprise.

With such formidable combat power, Yu Lei actually lost!

"Click!"

He Xia crushed his own phone.

Just now, he was recording, intending to capture Lu Xun's defeat, but instead recorded Lu Xun's MVP settlement screen.

"I actually misjudged!"

"Yu Lei even used the Heavenly Thunder Palm—how could he lose?"

"This could let him win... just what monster is Lu Xun?"

On the distant buildings, that group of upperclass geniuses were also startled.

Their strength is top-notch at Beidou University, their monstrous talent ranking among the best.

They also judge people accurately.

But they never expected to misjudge this time.

In the eyes of other students, they who are considered 'monsters' actually think Lu Xun is a monster.

This shows how shocked they are.

"Who else!"

Li Bu fan shouted at the top of his lungs.

Lu Xun made them proud; this brother of his was even more excited than Lu Xun himself.

"Brother Xun, I'll boost your record for you."

The students eagerly went on stage, easily pushing Lu Xun to twenty consecutive wins.

Now, even if Lu Xun loses in the fourth-round overlimit challenge, he can still claim the reward for the previous fifteen wins—namely, a unit of Dark Energy.

If he wins the fourth round, after multiplying fivefold, Lu Xun is guaranteed at least 520,000 units of Dark Energy.

"Manager Li, is there anyone else?"

Jia Yuyi asked.

"Miss, there's none for now; I'll contact you right away."

Manager Li said in a flustered manner.

He lost his composure.

Who would have thought that on the freshman arena, Yu Lei at the third level, sixth layer would still lose!

He is a peerless genius capable of lasting three minutes undefeated against a fourth-realm grandmaster!

Moreover, Yu Lei possesses the Nine Heavens Thunder Pulse; such a confined arena is his ideal battlefield.

Just like that, he was still defeated by Lu Xun!

No need.

Jia Yuwei decided to end all of this.

Although, she also really wanted to find someone to defeat Lu Xun and embarrass him.

But as a merchant, profit comes first, she won't act on impulse.

As soon as she moved, she stepped onto the platform.

Huh, she's a beauty.

This woman wants to fight Brother Xun on the platform? Brother Xun, you definitely better not hold back!

The students thought Jia Yuwei had come up to fight on the platform.

Across from him, Lu Xun raised his eyebrows, also thinking Jia Yuwei would come in person.

If she's coming, then let her come—don't blame him for helping Bai Ling vent some anger.

Fellow students.

Jia Yuwei walked elegantly to the center of the platform in high heels, wearing a formal smile as she looked around, finally fixing her gaze on Lu Xun.

I'm the person in charge of the Jia Clan Group. For this platform fight, we've prepared three rounds total; clearing all three earns double the reward. Lu Xun, you've earned a unit of Dark Energy, and we'll deposit it directly into your card later.

She didn't come to challenge; she came straight to announce the end.

You Jia Clan Group," Lu Xun crossed his arms, leaning sideways on the edge of the platform, a sneer curling his lips, "you guys won't be sore losers, right?

His voice wasn't loud, but it was like a sharp dagger, piercing the silence of the scene.

Just sore losers!" Someone in the crowd immediately shouted in agreement.

They never mentioned this rule before," another male student shouted, arms waving indignantly, "now they suddenly add a rule—this isn't being a sore loser, what is it?

The Jia Clan Group can't handle losing.

More students began to jeer, someone even whistled, and the entire Big Dipper Square instantly erupted.

Jia Yuwei's face instantly turned extremely grim.

Although she had seen many big scenes, being mocked like this by the genius students of Big Dipper University, she couldn't take it.
